oalition-building tools needed to reverse the long pattern of over exploitation of the Gulf’s natural resources. We have a vision of a healthy Gulf of Mexico returned to its former splendor that supports a thriving ecosystem that includes the Gulf’s natural resources and, just as importantly, the people, communities, and cultures that depend on those resources. Healthy Gulf’s programs focus on a just transition that moves us away from extractive systems of energy production, consumption, and political oppression, and towards resilient, regenerative and equitable economies.

Last week, the City of St. Petersburg officially proclaimed World Ocean Day, recognizing the importance of protecting the Gulf, the communities that depend on it, and the marine wildlife that call it home, including the critically endangered Rice’s whale.

Healthy Gulf was proud to join partners from Sierra Club Florida and other organizations at City Hall as local leaders reaffirmed their commitment to safeguarding our waters from the risks of offshore drilling.

The proclamation highlighted what we know to be true: healthy oceans support thriving coastal communities, economies, and ecosystems.

We're grateful to the St. Petersburg City Council, Mayor Kenneth Welch, and all of our partners working together to oppose offshore drilling and defend protections for vulnerable species and habitats.

Together, we're making sure the story of the Rice's whale, and the need to protect the Gulf, is heard loud and clear.

On Global Wind Day, Healthy Gulf is sharing this announcement from the National Wildlife Federation highlighting major progress in offshore wind energy over the past year.

We’re encouraged by the momentum outlined in this work; from new projects coming online to growing evidence that responsibly developed offshore wind can deliver clean, reliable energy while supporting wildlife protections and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. These advances reflect a broader shift toward a more resilient and sustainable energy future.

At Healthy Gulf, this progress strongly aligns with our mission and the work we’re advancing along the Gulf region. We’re especially interested in how lessons from Atlantic offshore wind development can help guide responsible, wildlife-conscious energy planning in the Gulf region, ensuring that climate solutions also protect the ecosystems and communities that depend on healthy waters.

Today is World Oceans Day 🌎

The Gulf is more than a body of water, it’s a source of life, culture, livelihoods, and biodiversity for millions of people and countless species.

From coastal wetlands that protect communities from storms to marine habitats that support fisheries and wildlife, healthy oceans are essential to a healthy future. Yet pollution, habitat loss, climate change, and industrial development continue to threaten the waters we depend on.

At Healthy Gulf, we work every day to protect and restore the Gulf’s ecosystems, advocate for environmental justice, and ensure that future generations can enjoy clean water, thriving wildlife, and resilient coastal communities.

This World Oceans Day, we invite you to join us in celebrating the beauty of our oceans and recommitting to the work needed to protect them.

Because when we protect the Gulf, we protect our communities, our economy, and our future.

💙 Together, we can keep our oceans healthy for generations to come.

Some things are still worth fighting for.

Our environment, the centerpiece in the puzzle of life, is one of those things.

Nature works as one interconnected system. Every coral reef, mangrove forest, fish, bird, and drop of water plays a role in maintaining balance.

When one part suffers, the impact spreads throughout the entire web of life. The health of our oceans, our climate, and our communities depends on these connections. When we protect one piece of nature, we help protect the whole.

From someone on the front lines: the Gulf cannot afford a repeat of Deepwater Horizon, and right now, that risk is real and advancing.

BP's Kaskida project would bring ultra-deepwater drilling to Keathley Canyon, requiring still-emerging technologies to withstand extreme high-pressure, high-temperature conditions that make a loss-of-control incident far more likely than what caused the 2010 disaster. This is happening as safety rules developed after that catastrophe face proposed rollbacks.
Healthy Gulf, alongside Turtle Island Restoration Network, Habitat Recovery Project, Sierra Club, and Center for Biological Diversity, represented by Earthjustice, is challenging the approval of this project in court. Production is planned to begin before 2030. The time to act is now.

Please donate. Any amount keeps our legal and advocacy work moving forward.
